Texas Teachings


To be fair, no public schools in Texas are teaching that the Holocaust is a hoax. They only tried to teach that the Holocaust is a hoax. During a training session in a North Texas school district on what books should be in classrooms and libraries, one administration official said they should have books on... Continue Reading →

Oppress My Threats

Simone Biles is the greatest gymnast... Continue Reading →
